The Yemeni war (2015-present) began between two factions claiming to constitute the Yemeni government. Houthi forces allied with forces loyal to the former president Ali Abdullah Saleh confronted forces loyal to the Saudi-backed government of Abdrabbuh Mansur Hadi.In March 2015, Houthi-Saleh forces captured Sana, the last remaining stronghold of pro-Hadi forces. Hadi fled to Saudi Arabia that responded with a large-scale invasion to Yemen in an attempt to re-establish its proxy in power.ISIS and al-Qaeda were also involved in the conflict, carrying out attacks across the country.

They gain in the North (hopefully), but lose in the South (hopefully not) + Muslims are killing Muslims (very naughty in the Koran) and the UN continues to watch doing diddly squat (hovers there have been rumbling about more useless peace keepers in). Yank and Saudi Slime and now a small force of UK troops are in.

Cheap bastard Saudis and Emiratis. Don’t pay their genocidal Sudanese Janaweed mercs in Yemen, and don’t bother to pay the U.S. taxpayers for air refueling, either. Someone at the Pentagon needs to go to prison for a long, long time for this. Zero respect for Mattis anymore – he’s so blinded by his own anti-Iran hysteria that he can’t even get the God damn DoD beancounters to do their f’king job.

…
U.S. taxpayers have been footing the bill for a major part of the Saudi-led campaign, possibly to the tune of tens of millions of dollars.
…
“It is clear that the Department has not lived up to its obligation to keep Congress appropriately informed or its responsibility to secure timely reimbursement,” [Pentagon spokesperson] Reed told The Atlantic. “U.S.-provided aerial refueling assistance was provided to the Saudi-led coalition for more than 3.5 years, activities that likely cost tens of millions of dollars. We must ensure that U.S. taxpayers are fully reimbursed for that support.”
…

Tens of millions? Oh, FFS. Yeah, at pathetically low reimbursement rates. The ‘cost’ to KSA or UAE per flight hour for burning through USAF KC-135R tanker and crew in 2016 was all of $11,209/hr.
